The scheduler, work buffer's dispose, and write barriers can conspire to hide the a pointer from the GC's concurent mark phase. If this pointer is the only path to a large amount of marking the STW mark termination phase may take a lot of time. Consider the following: 1) dispose places a work buffer on the partial queue 2) the GC is busy so it does not immediately remove and process the work buffer 3) the scheduler runs a mutator whose write barrier dequeues the work buffer from the partial queue so the GC won't see it This repeats until the GC reaches the mark termination phase where the GC finally discovers the pointer along with a lot of work to do. This CL fixes the problem by having the mutator dispose of the buffer to the full queue instead of the partial queue. Since the write buffer never asks for full buffers the conspiracy described above is not possible. Updates #11694.
